I have installed 2 instances of traefik proxy on 2 nodes so that if one goes down the second one can take load, I am not adding traefik on swarm to avoid if cluster goes down the traefik will also go down as some services traefik takes care are running on baremetal .

So I want to know if there is a way to load balance the traefik endpoint in traefik appraoch way ?
